What's new

OFFICIAL Postseason race thread *Sticky*

Updated the OP! Sorry been moving this weekend!

Jazz won big yesterday AND rested Favors for tonight. Lyles and Gobert are studs. Burks knocked off his rust! I wont have TV till tomorrow at the new place but I will have my internet today so I will be watching online thru my DISH account!

Mavs lost which was HUGE for Utah. Rockets won to keep the pressure on.

Tonight's games:
Rockets @ Wolves
Mavs @ Jazz


If the Jazz win they are 7th. If they lose and the Rockets win they are 9th. HUGE games tonight. Jazz must win!!

We are in dangerous waters here. If the Jazz win out and (v. Dallas & @ Lakers) and the Grizz lose out (@ Clips @ Warriors) than the Jazz end up the 6th seed. If that doesn't happen then I'd rather stay in 8th tbh.

6th, 8th, 7th and lotto in that order.

GO JAZZ!!!!
 
Clipper updates: Jeff Green has $350,000 in bonuses if the Clips win outright. You know he wants that money. That is good for their game against Memphis.

Griffin will play v. Memphis

Off topic but I have been thinking of switching to dish network.
How much is your cable and internet and for how many channels?
 
Today is my wife's birthday. I got my sin up early to help make breakfast in bed. We went in with breakfast and he said "mom, it's your BIRTHDAY!" and I asked him what we say on mom's birthday, hoping to hear happy birthday. What does he say though?

DE-FENSE!

Jazz are going to kill the mavs. With defense
 
So the Clippers are at home, will they play the starters?

If they win that game and we beat the Mavs we get a cool 'beat Kobe in last game ever, and hope Warriors get the 73 wins' thing goin to get us the 6 seed.
 
I swear y'all are insane. Who in the right mind wants to play a 72-9 team who beat the Spurs 3-1 instead of the Spurs?
 
7, 6, 8. In that order.

Not sure we have the ppl to stop Durant and Russ (Durant especially). But their bench is trash. I guess we'll see.

I say 6, 7, 8
 
I'm going to be camping around the 27th of April with friends for a few days so the jazz need to just take care of their first round opponent in 4 games so they have some time off before the second round so I don't have to miss any games live.

Yea, we're the insane ones...

The Thunder have blown so many 4th quarter leads this year, and they are crap at closing out games late. The Jazz can pretty consistently get down to the wire with a team, and if we can do that then we have a pretty decent shot at pulling off a win. The Thunder are perhaps the only playoff team that is worse late game than us. I like our chances to take the series to six games.


I honestly think that the reason you want the Spurs is because you think we can steal one game. And you REALLY want to be able to troll Spurstalk after a Jazz win just once before the end of the season.
 
The 6th seed is at reach with only 2 games left and the Grizzlies play @Clippers and @Warriors. Anything can happen I would take the 6th seed any day of the week, not because of our chances to take the series but because a 6th seed after an Exum-less season and with all the injuries would be huge. Talk about overachieving.
 
That's my hope, we win, Rockets lose, we be in!

The Lakers game really scares me that the NBA will send Kobe out with a win.

Unless we have a total meltdown, I think the favoritism from the refs would need to be extraordinarily blatant for the Lakers to beat us. And if that ends up happening, I might honestly quit the NBA.

I dont know how the NBA telling refs to favor the Lakers would help the NBA. It's not like the Lakers need this game to get into the playoffs. People are going to watch the game no matter what.

And there's no real expectation that they'll go out with a bang. Kobe's farewell tour has been a joke. He's leaving the NBA on one of the worst teams in the league while his play has been hit-and-miss at best.

Not sure why people are even nervous about that game.

Michael Jordan's last game was a loss. So sure that might be some favoritism for Kobe the player, but not the team as a whole.

Jazz have proven that they play better against the Warriors than the Spurs. Argue with the stats.
